Question
Should one recite the blessing of Shehecheyanu on a large tallit and when?
Answer
Yes, on the first wearing, and first recite the blessing of Shehecheyanu, followed by the blessing of the mitzvah.
Source
Mishnah Berurah, Siman 22, writes first about tzitzit and then Shehecheyanu, but in Siman 25 writes the opposite. One should distinguish between blessings of enjoyment and blessings of commandments, but in practice, it seems one should do as mentioned above.
